Can you believe it's been 9 years since Dark Matter first aired?! (9 years, 6 months, 6 days to be exact.)
Why in the world did Dark Matter end?
When Dark Matter came to an end after 3 years in August 2017, million viewers tuned in to say goodbye to Five (Jodelle Ferland), Two (Melissa O'Neil) and the Android (Zoie Palmer). And since then, they have been itching for a reunion.
Would a Dark Matter reunion disappoint people?
Dark Matter aired from 2015-2017 and is considered one of the most influential TV shows ever on pop culture. Although no original episodes have been shot since, it has remained a regular feature on many station's schedules. But O'Neil said she's not sure if Dark Matter would work today. “I don't want to see old Two,” she told a journalist (O'Neil turned 36 in July). “Everyone’s going to have different vision of what the character is like, so to have that materialize is going to disappoint most people,” she added.
Still hoping for a Dark Matter movie?
In a recent interview, Jodelle Ferland said she can't imagine a Dark Matter reunion hitting the big screen. “I'd rather people go, ‘Oh, please! Please!’ than ‘I can't believe you did that. It was horrible.’”
Co-star Zoie Palmer has also previously explained, “It would be terrible to do something and have it not be good,”. “It was so terrific ... If we did a Dark Matter movie and it sucked, then it would, you know, blemish it.”
On the subject of whether there could be a Dark Matter film, Shaun Sipos stated : “I think it's a bit of a case of ‘the book is better than the movie’.”
What about a Dark Matter reboot?
Recasting Dark Matter for a modern reboot. Hollywood is known for remaking remakes of films or tv series and the studios might think it would be great to bring the story back with a new set of characters.
Be it in the form of a Dark Matter reunion, a Dark Matter movie, or a Dark Matter reboot, if you had to start filming today, who would you cast in what role?
